  • Quote from Cliff

    “Making the change to green screen technology has been one of the most exciting things that CSP has ever done. It opens up so many options and creative ways to showcase each child’s portrait and is a game changer in school photography.”

Learn Our Story

1.

Following the anticipated demise of Mini-Labs and Film processing, the decision was made to concentrate solely on Schools which has been very successful and resulted in Creative School Portraits becoming a leader in the School Photographic Industry.

2.

Cliff was one of the first in Australia to envision bringing the American-style Green Screen Technology to parents, allowing them to not only view their child’s photo before purchase but to access a variety of backgrounds, products and now, even select Digital-only options.

3.

Observing and participating in the changes in the Industry, and researching the latest technology, cameras, and software has resulted in a very well-balanced & family-run business.

Create, sort, print, and package IN-HOUSE

One of Creative School Portraits most significant advantages is that we
create, sort, print and package IN-HOUSE. No work goes out to other Labs,
and we have FULL control over our production from start to finish.
